She said she noticed some filler migration in her upper lip, which inspired her to chat with Chanel from BeYouth Medspa in Caldwell, NJ, about her options. She said Chanel has done Botox for her before.
âInstead of a wider look, weâre gonna go for more height, a crispier vermilion border,â Chanel explained. âA more natural look.â
The vermilion border, according to Hayes Valley Medical Esthetics, is âthe line of demarcation between your lips and the surrounding skin.â

The âTurning the Tablesâ host admitted she was âa little nervous, but excitedâ and ready to âstart fresh.â
She showed her fans the process of getting her fillers dissolved, which included having a numbing cream applied to her lips and receiving injections of an enzyme that attacks hyaluronic acid.
After the injections were done, Chanel applied some bruising cream to the reality star and sent her on her way.
Before Giudice left, she said she was in no pain and felt no burning because her lips were completely numb.
